Download GPS Test by chartcross. In settings clear AGPS data then download fresh AGPS. Then go to the sat locks screen. It should pop up in a couple of minutes.

Kenny im trying your method first since its alot faster. I have gps status and the WIFI im on wont let me connect to google play. Tried installing from laptop and wont go either. GPS status has can clear agps and get new aswell so will I update the thread

It is known that the Epic must connect to a data signal to get GPS. So since you can't get to Play store I am guessing that is the real issue.

I finally found a good wifi connection and was able to get gps to lock. I then went away from the wifi and it stayed connected with no data. However when I turned gps off and tried to lock again with no data it won't lock. Very annoying. Is there any workaround aside from anynomous?

No. I believe the epic either requires a data or cell connection to enable GPS.

Ok let me clarify how to get gps when u have no service. This has been working for me for 2 days. You can not be in airplane mode. You must have airplane mode turned off and have precached map area on google maps prior. I use gps status to lock then open gmaps then ur good. Thanks all

So your status bar actually says "no signal" that circle with the line through it?

Not sure what tools you have, but here is a thread that may help:

[Q] Cerberus

Anyone been able to get the gps for this app to work on a rooted SGS3? I have it in system apps but notta gps, still enables wifi only. Any help or workarounds? Thanks!

I'm not having any issues with it. Can you rephrase your issue, please? The web interface won't track the phone?

It will track the phone via web, but the gps will not track, all I get is a little split second icon like the gps wants to turn on, but wont, and wifi automatically takes over the phone internet connection. Im trting to get gps to work on this thing and its not.

Mind the fact im on the stock Rom rooted only, no custom recovery.

Does the app have su access? Have you enabled Device Administration within the app?

Delete thread, problem was solved through cerberus support. Was wondering why gps icon was disappearing suddenly. Once the app enables, gps goes to ghost mode.

Any solutions to GPS freezing in GA10?

Mainly happens with Facebook (have locations disabled but still turns on the GPS and tries to get a lock)
Randomly the GPS will try to get a lock (or even get one) and stay on, even after the application that was using it is closed... Have tried using terminal to stop the location service and doesn't do anything...
Anyone found a workaround for this (besides the normal rebooting)... It started to eat the battery like crazy when it does this

I have this same problem. My solution was to stop using the Facebook app as it is the only one that causes me the problem.

I've had the same problem with the Facebook app, I suggest turning the GPS off from the pull down bar before entering the app all together

WiFi not reconnecting

I leave my WiFi on at all times. I only have WiFi access at home, so when I'm at work I leave it on but am not connected to anything except the cell network. My typical day is about 10 hours at the office. When I get home, occasionally I will reconnect to my own WiFi but most days it will show my network as available and that my password is saved, but I have to toggle WiFi on and then back on before it will auto correct. Trying to manually connect from the network list doesn't connect either until toggled off and on.
Over the weekend, I can leave for several hours and reconnect without any issue. Seems to be something with the extended time away during the workday that causes the issue. Is anyone else experiencing similar or have suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Just toggling the WiFi off and on seems to resolve it, so it's not an overly huge issue. Just would be nice if I didn't need to toggle at all and it would auto connect as my previous phones had done.

Have you tried toggling the airplane mode or data switch? If that doesn't work, try putting it in airplane mode, reboot the phone, taking out of airplane mode. You should only have to do that once.
If that all fails, try the "killall rild" command trick. One of those is bound to work. I'll bet your texts are being sent by wifi if your data's not working.

Tried toggle airplane mode and data button.nothing.i can recieve and send texts with wifi off.just no data connection only signal cluster bars with an exclamation mark.in about phone menu says i am on rogers network but no data for internet use or reading emails or play store.really sucks.I even flashed back to stock and then flashed candy rom hopping it would of set something that caused this but when candy booted up the first thing i saw was that damn exclimation mark instead of the LTE.****
